This entire take is completely wrong.

Same statement applies to Russell Wilson, but he has been extremely durable for 8+ years. Lamar has had fewer injury problems than Mahomes so far. All it takes is one bad play to cause huge problems for any of these guys.

Whoever has the better conference record is the #1 seed. If it’s the same than they go by strength of schedule. Hardest strength of schedule is #1 seed

Russell Wilson scrambles a lot and takes hits, but his game is not based on rushing the football as much as Lamar Jackson.

The better comparison to Lamar Jackson's style of play is Cam Newton who has been injured a lot.

Your response is bs.

And there’s a huge difference in size between Cam and Lamar.

I don’t know how people can look at his frame and playing style and not see the inevitability of injury.

Like I said, they have him running around late in games when they have a huge lead. They’re playing with fire every single week.

Cam doesn't run like Lamar.

Cam tries to bulldoze people with his massive frame.

Lamar more often than not gets low, slides, gets out of bounds etc. He does more to avoid contact, while at times, Cam goes looking for contact.

I don't think it's a good comparison.

“They beat the Browns”....

By 32. It’s not like they squeaked by.

I understand your point and agree, the comparison is more about reliance on the run, but Lamar was taking shots left and right towards the end of last year and he took some week 1.

Teams are starting to realize you have to hit him when you get a chance, and they are.

Regardless, the way he’s built, I think a non-contact injury could just as easily be what does him in. Running around that much is dangerous outside of just getting hit.

I agree that they should be more careful with him. But he doesn't really take the massive hits that Cam did. Lamar is super quick, and he's pretty smart about getting out of bounds as well (for the most part).

In terms of injury for Lamar, I think it more likely that he blows out a knee doing one of his crazy juke moves. This happened to Deshaun Watson in practice with nobody touching him.

Again, he wasn’t taking shots early on, but talking about the end of the year last year and week 1 he’s been taking them way too often. If you’re going to run around that much, guys are going to get their shots.

Also, if you look at my post above yours, I totally agree that it could just as easily be a non-contact injury that does him in. The risk of both is fairly high considering his playing style and build.

We posted at the exact same time, lol

And no one is claiming they’re a shitty team. If they go 14-2 this season....it’s because they have an easy ass schedule.....not because they’re this world beater of a team.

Weakest schedule in the league. How does this happen for a team that went 14-2 the year before? Smh.

The Ravens have two inexperienced safties in their secondary and their pass-rush was ranked the WORST at the weekend.. giving Baker more time to throw than all other qb's, and Baker still wet the bed.
